You can also boot on safe mode and check if you encounter the same issue

If you don't then its an app acting up

The next step will be for you to backup your phone then repair your phone with PCC

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Does it allow you to reinstall the current software?

That's quite odd, it should give you the option to repair/re-install the current firmware, uninstall PCC > restart your PC > redownload PCC > install it > restart your PC > try again
